Ideas for 40 presents for a 40-yr old

It's my sister-in-law's 40th birthday on the 29th Feb, and we've (dh, me and their brother) decided to buy her 40 presents - probably one for around £20, and the rest for £3 - £4 pounds. I'm sure I'll have no problem getting started, but I fear that after about 15, I'll start getting stuck.

This is where you come in. Do you have any ideas for what we can buy her? She has 2 children - ds is 6, dd is 7 weeks.

All suggestions gratefully received!

Just to update, dd1 and I went and bought the 40 presents - I printed out this thread for inspiration. In the end, it was really quite easy - could probably have done 50.

SIL was here during feb 1/2 term and couldn't wait to find out what we'd bought her - I'd wrapped everything and then put into 2 big boxes, and she was really intrigued. I had to make sure that MIL kept it at her house in the week before her birthday, so she wouldn't peek!

She really loved the presents and the idea, so it was a definite success! Thanks to all for your input. (Sorry so long until I updated)
